EVIL Islamic State (ISIS) fanatics are running a recruitment agency in Brussels where talent scouts are paid for each new jihadi that joins - with a bonus on offer if their agent carries out a lethal attack.

The revelations come as Belgium's capital, Brussels, is still reeling in shock after ISIS fanatics left 34 people dead and hundreds seriously injured after carrying out suicide bomb attacks at the city's airport and a metro station.

Now as the world joins the hunt for those behind the attrocicities, it has emerged that the United Nations warned that Belgum was a hotbed for terrorists four months ago - just 11 days before the Paris massacre on November 13 which left 130 dead and around 300 injured after suicide and gun attacks at the Bataclan nightclub, Stade de France and bars.
